etiologic factors for recurrent miscarriage (rm) include autoimmune diseases, the most frequently antiphospholipid syndrome and thyroiditis. some women who suffer from rm might also have an altered immune system. we aimed to evaluate possible associations between anti-thyroid and anti-phospholipid antibodies in women with rm. in a retrospective case series 1 on 156 women with rm, major outcome ...

Two glycoprotein fractions, A and B, were isolated from bovine achilles tendon. Glycoprotein A was prepared from a 0.2m-sodium chloride extract and glycoprotein B was isolated from a 3m-magnesium chloride extract. They were free from serum proteins. Glycoprotein A was essentially free of collagen, but glycoprotein B contained about 8% collagen. Both glycoproteins gave several bands on isoelectr...

Metastasis is a serious and often life-threatening condition, representing the leading cause of death among women with breast cancer (BC). Although current clinical classification BC well-established, addition minimally invasive laboratory tests based on peripheral blood biomarkers that reflect pathological changes in body utmost importance. In study, serum proteome lipidome profiles for 50 pat...

conclusions these findings of the present study indicate that the recombinant coree1e2 glycoprotein is effective in inducing neutralizing antibodies, and is an influential hcv vaccine candidate. results in our study, the virus-like particle of rcoree1e2 with 70 nm size, was shown by electron microscopy and proved the self-assembly in vitro in a yeast expression system. materials and methods by ...

The elaboration of enamel matrix glycoprotein was investigated in secretory ameloblasts of incisor teeth in 30-40-g rats. To this end, the distribution of glycoprotein was examined histochemically by the use of phosphotungstic acid at low pH, while the formation of glycoprotein was traced radioautographically in animals sacrificed 2.5-30 min after galactose-(3)H injection. Histochemically, the ...

P-glycoprotein, the most extensively studied ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter, functions as a biological barrier by extruding toxins and xenobiotics out of cells. In vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated that P-glycoprotein plays a significant role in drug absorption and disposition. Because of its localisation, P-glycoprotein appears to have a greater impact on limiting cellular up...

PURPOSE The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is a transporting epithelial monolayer that controls hydration and composition of the subretinal space. P-glycoprotein is an ATP-binding cassette transport protein known to transport a wide range of hydrophobic compounds. The expression of P-glycoprotein in barrier epithelial cells suggests that it could serve a normal protective function, possibly c...

Objective: Coronaviruses and paramyxoviruses, both of which are RNA viruses, have similar structural glycoprotein characteristics. It is considered that antibodies developed against these structures may protect by cross-reaction because the glycoproteins viruses related to their ability infect cell.

Affinity chromatography, with rabbit anti-(human Tamm-Horsfall glycoprotein) IgG, was applied to the isolation from normal human serum of protein, which is immunologically cross-reactive with the urinary glycoprotein. The antigen-antibody complex was dissociated with the use of sodium thiocyanate solution, a medium which fails to dissociate urinary Tamm-Horsfall glycoprotein-antigen complex. Th...

Previous studies show that transient axonal glycoprotein-1, a ligand of amyloid precursor protein, increases the secretion of amyloid precursor protein intracellular domain and is involved in apoptosis in Alzheimer's disease. In this study, we examined the effects of transient axonal glycoprotein-1 on U251 glioma cells. 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay showed t...
